View Map

What makes it 68% Baby-Friendly: Strollers are allowed and elevators reach all floors, but no dedicated nursing or changing room is listed, so diaper care happens in standard toilets and narrow aisles can feel crowded.

Very nice museum. If you have time to spend then try this museum. First and foremost, the architecture and design inside is beautiful. You can just spend some time looking at the walls, ceiling, pillars and the stairs going up. There are multiple types of art exhibition in here, so you can pick and choose which one you want to visit. I would highly recommend going to this museum.

Beautiful baroque building, with high marbled walls and domed ceilings - an artwork on its own. The galleries we explored are large and comprehensively capture primarily Renaissance art - rich colors, photo-realistic subjects, and heavy religious symbolism. We were rushed for time, ideally you should plan a day to wander through the galleries. Very enjoyable.

The museum also has a café, but there was a constant queue, so we skipped it. However, it’s b...
